Spin the globe, stop and start
Come to a place that's torn apart
Here's a secret, it's my heart,
Oh well,
It's only

Broken shutters, whistling wind,
Vultures circling overhead,
Tumbleweeds fl y,
Dust in my eyes,
Guess it's not my feelings crying

Peeling paint on empty homes,
Where people lived in this town long ago,
Packed their bags, nailed down the door,
To Lonelytown

Oh I once had a love of my life,
The sun of my soul
But I took him for granted,
Ignored all the signs,
And now it's just memories and passing ghosts

Spiderwebs and weeds waist high,
Abandoned schoolyards and rusted wire
Looking for love,
Looking for life,
In Lonelytown

If you're lucky with a love of your own
Remember this in a nutshell I've told:
Hold them close and don't let go,
And cherish forevermore
Or you will live in Lonelytown
